Death Gods Only Eat Apples

[.chasm.]

L looked down at the bowl, chewing his thumb. "There's still icing left."

Matt smirked, stretching his legs out again and unpausing his game. "This is the one reason Near should be here."

 

[nokotchi]

"Then finish it quickly." Sakura said with a shrug.

Mello nodded, his fists clenched. "I need to punch something right now.... I won't get to Light in time..." he muttered.

 

[.chasm.]

L looked down at the bowl again, scooping up some more icing with his finger and licking it. "What if I don't?"

Matt pulled his legs up again, drawing them in close. "As long as it's not me."

 

[nokotchi]

"I'll take it away and it'll be shower time." Sakura told him with a sigh.

Mello looked over at Matt. "Give me something to punch......"

 

[.chasm.]

L sucked on his finger, staring at Sakura. "And there's nothing I can do about it?"

Matt shrugged, curling up. "Just go and bully Matsuda or something. As long as you don't hit me."

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura shook her head. "Nope, nothing."

Mello scowled. "Give me something to punch!" he repeated.

 

[.chasm.]

L looked back down at the bowl, then stood up and held it out to Sakura. "I'll have the cookies if I do, won't I?"

"I just told you, go and attack Matsuda," Matt said, sinking back into the chair.

 

[nokotchi]

"Yes." Sakura answered with a nod.

Mello grunted, turning around and beating the s**t out of a pillow.

 

[.chasm.]

"Okay," L said, turning and walking out of the room with his finger still in his mouth.

Matt looked up from his game with wide eyes, watching Mello punch the pillow. "All of this over chocolate?"

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura followed L out of the room, her arms crossed.

Mello looked over at Matt. "You'd do the same thing for video games!!"

 

[.chasm.]

L walked down the corridor slowly, sliding his hands into his pockets. "I need to get other clothes," he said, stopping.

Matt slid back away from Mello, looking back down at his DS. "Maybe."

 

[nokotchi]

"Alright, I'll come with you." Sakura told L, wanting to make sure he didn't go back to the main room for surveillance.

Mello laughed. "Maybe? I know you would for sure."

 

[.chasm.]

L turned the corner and walked through the door into his room. "Are you planning on standing in the bathroom with me?" he asked, chewing his thumb.

"If you ever deprived me of my video games, I would beat your a**," Matt said, sounding more serious than before.

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura shook her head. "No, I'll be outside the door.."

Mello nodded. "Believe me, I know."

 

[.chasm.]

L pulled open a drawer with one hand, chewing the thumb of the other. "Do you not trust me, then?" He pulled out a t-shirt and some jeans.

Matt slid his legs back down again, unpausing his game. "So don't ever do it."

 

[nokotchi]

"Do you want me to stand in the bathroom with you?" Sakura asked.

Mello laughed. "Don't worry. I won't."

 

[.chasm.]

L thought for a second, holding his clothes tightly and chewing on his thumb. "I would prefer for you stand outside," he said, walking towards the door.

"Good," Matt said, already transfixed by the screen.

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura nodded. "That's exactly what I thought."

Mello sighed and sat back on the sofa, stretching out.

 

[.chasm.]

L walked down the corridor, towards the bathroom. "You won't come in, will you?"

Matt didn't even look up as Mello sat down, muttering under his breath at the game.

 

[nokotchi]

Sakura shook her head. "I won't."

Mello searched his pockets for a chocolate bar. When he couldn't find one, he looked over at Matt and nudged him. "We need to go to the chocolate shop."
